karl thinks so.n he made his big discovery in the attic, he spied several wrinkled and grimy cards strewn among the rafters and the floorboards. karl believes that they went flying during one of his grandma jennie's cleaning purges, when she'd pitch boxes of junk right out the attic window into a big mound below. thank goodness she never got hold of that one box in the corner. i'm jamie colby for "strange inheritance." thank you so much for joining us. and remember, you can't take it with you. do you have a "strange inheritance" story you'd like to share with us? we'd love to hear it. send me an e-mail, or go to our website, strangeinheritance.com. >> beauty's in the eye of the beholder. so meet the beholders. >> these paintings just did not appeal to me. and i don't think they appealed to my wife, either. >> i said, well, i guess the salvation army is as good as anyplace. we don't want them. >> but one man's trash... >> it just knocked my socks off. >> we have $50,000. >> within a few weeks, everybo

go ahead, karl. >> yeah. martha, with awe due respect to juan.resident obama removed the missile shield in central europe in 2009 and 2010. this is 2012. in march of 2012 as he is running for re-election. of the missile shield has been taken off the table. >> no. the russians want it. >> this has to do with the missile shield that defends the united states of america. this was not in the national interest. this was don't mess around with me during the political campaign and i will give you some flexibility after the election. talk about a quid pro quo. but would we be talking about impeaching the president? you may think it was right, but a lot of people in america think that was wrong. but i doubt we would all be agreeing even those of us who thought it was wrong would say impeach him over it. >> martha: okay. that's the issue at hand. because as we say there a lot of people who believe that there was something wrong with the call. the question is whether or not they believe that the president of the united states should be impeached over this i

>> so, let's get right to jon karl. and jon, the president has >> so, terry, how likely this is agreement, as we head into the senate trial right after the first of the year. >> reporter: well, david, they may be able to get something hashed out, but there's a big difference between the senate today and the senate during the clinton impeachment. that senate kept the clinton white house at arm's length and laid out the operative procedures of that trial on their own, as an independent body. mitch mcconnell has said that he is in total coordination with the trump white house. he wants a short trial. schumer, as you said, wants witnesses. the president, keeping his options open. >> all right, terry, thank you. i did have one other question for you, terry, because we know when it comes to the senate, it's all about math. 67 members of the senate needed to actually convict the president, but that's extremely unlikely here. >> reporter: really unlikely. you almost can't imagine it in these partisan times. that 67, a super maj

>> so, let's get right to jon karl. and jon, the president has repeatedly called impeachment an ugly word, a disgusting word. he did not want this to happen, but it would appear, jon, that he is also ready for battle. >> reporter: impeachment clearly bothers him, david. but he is in battle mode. he'll be out, of course, at his campaign rally in michigan tonight. looking forward to that battle in the senate, the senate trial, confident he will win and when and if he does, david, certain to claim complete and total exoneration and vindication. >> all right, jon karl with us live tonight, as well. jon, thank you. >>> and as you heard jon report there, the president headed to michigan for a rally tonight. clearly pivoting already. so, let's get right to martha raddatz, live at the rally. and martha, impeachment has already become part of the president's campaign message. >> reporter: earn sily has, david. that's what you'll hear the president talking about here tonight, venting about those tweets, i think you'll hear him vo

. >> jon karl, our chief white house correspondent, that letter yesterday unlike any other letter that we have faced from a president facing impeachment. >> pure unadultered donald trump. this letter showed anger and defiance. i'm told that it was written without the input of the white house lawyers, white house counsel, one senior adviser to the president explained to me he didn't want the lawyers to tell him to tone it down, no, not to include anything. the white house counsel wasn't brought in until after the letter was drafted. but that was donald trump. the words spoken by donald trump. translated into the letter by his longtime speechwriter, stephen miller and another top adviser. he's defiant. i'm told he's very upbeat, he didn't want this day to come. but he's also someone who relishes being in a fight and this is fight he's winning. although he's most certain to be impeached. white house expects to be not a single republican vote in favor of that impeachment. >> they expect he'll be acquitted by the senate. terry moran, unadultered donald trump in that letter. so different fro

also tonight, karl rove and juan williams. lawmakers are fine-tuning the president's articles of impeachment. jesse watters is here as well. a special maxine waters addition of "wednesdays with waters." first i am joined by trey gowdy. always good to see you. great to have you in new york tonight. what did you think about the fact that places like places like "the new york times" and rolling stone are saying "holy god, what a clown show this whole thing was." >> two years too late. they have vilified everyone. those of us for two years have been saying we like the department of justice. we need a good department of justice. what they did was wrong. i don't know what report comey read. it's the third ig report that's on his conduct to be substandard. if that's a victory lap, if he wants to take a victory lap because he's not indicted, more power to him. don't write anymore books on ethics. don't tell me what the ethical standard is if you think this report vindicates you. >> martha: i have followed the story very closely, cover

with me now is karl rove. happy day after your birthday carl.you think the democrats do want a circus? >> well maybe it's not deliberate on their part but that's exactly what they're resulting in. i mean, we had a rush in the house to judgment. they had to get it done and put it in adam schiff's hands, allow him to build a case. have a rubber stamp by the judiciary committee. it's urgent, it's urgent. we have to get it over to the senate. and it lingers. if nancy pelosi wants to usurp the constitutional role of the senate, what's interesting to me as a constitution is very specific and uses the word soul. thou shall have the sole power of impeachment and the senate shall have the power, sole power to try the impeachment. two different channels. what nancy pelosi is trying to do is just say, i took my responsibility. we patch the impeachmen pass tht resolution but i want you to tell me exactly how you are going to conduct the trial and i have to approve it. and under the constitution is solely set aside for the united states senate mainly to try

karl rove and juan williams standing by with analysis. and breaking tonight with john durham's probe into the he's looking at the email sync medications with anti-trump from her ci director john brennan. we've got details. kristin fisher with the latest on the impeachment standoff. where are we, kristin? >> congress heading home for the holidays with no clear plan what's going to come next bit senate majority leader mitch mcconnell shed tonight that we are at an impasse on the logistics of what this impeachment trial is going to look like in the senate. >> house democrats rushed to impeachment. weeks of pronouncements about the urgency of the situation, the house democrat prosecution seems to have gotten cold feet, they had to be insured of whether they even want to proceed to the trial. >> house speaker nancy pelosi refusing to send the two articles of impeachment that passed the house last night to the senate until mcconnell provides more details about how he intends to run the trial. democrats want new witnesses while mcconnell does no

well as you can imagine karl as you know anybody who follows president trump will know that his 1st go to method is of course on twitter he took to before even the articles of impeachment todd being announced and then of course afterwards he called it a witch hunt he said it was ridiculous and he also reiterated that there was no pressure put on that ukraine to investigate the former vice president joe biden with regards to republicans they said that the articles were you know basically on the allegations were baseless that they were partisan and many republicans came out to say that you know in fact it was the democrats who were abusing power and were in fact in obstructing congress but i think what we need to do actually is hear from the house minority leader kevin mccarthy the speaker is more concerned about tearing the president down instead of building the country and this is the day that center hamilton feared and warned would come this is the day the nation is weaker because the sheerly can put their animosity or their fear of losing an election in the future in front of all the

fighters coming from europe, but this is a tiny minority of the erprlem have in the region. >> jon karl unpacking a very busy day from london. and jon, the president also making news tonight and moving markets, suggesting he could put off a trade deal with china? >> reporter: the president has recently said that a trade deal with china or suggested it could be imminent, but today, he said that he may want to wait until after the presidential election, david. that comment sent stock markets reeling around the world, losses the president dismissed as, quote, peanuts. >> jon karl with us from london. jon, thank you. and we should note that news will carry the start of the judiciary committee meetings tomorrow on abc. >>> we move on now. senator kamala harris announcing she's dropping out. once drawing huge crowds, one of the top candidates on the democratic side. so, what happened? what she said today in her very candid message to her supporters. abc's linsey davis on if campaign again tonight. >> reporter: a campaign that started with so much promise -- >> kamala! kamala! >> reporter: --

jon karl live at the white house, the president's playbook

here to explain the architect himself, karl rove.r, ari fleischer pointed that out. number two, pennsylvania, wisconsin and michigan interesting numbers they are, karl rove. >> there is a new set of polls from that firehouse strategies. we have to say first of all as a republican firm, we have to know whether nonpartisan or partisan. these are the numbers against trump. trump's bidding according to firehouse, in the early states, biden was the candidate leading by the biggest margin earlier. michigan 46/41, pennsylvania 46/41, wisconsin 48-39 and in september firehouse last in the field biden beating trump and all three of those states. so we've got to be careful about putting too much into one poll. we like the state level and a series of polls but good movement in all three states. what is also interesting born out of other polling, in all three states the percentage of the people opposed to impeachment was rising. nearly 58% wisconsin, 52%, 52.2% in pennsylvania and 52.8% and the officers of the survey said each case you expect th

karl has a brilliant idea. so there are and i read this in march of '07 and cheney's power is already waning a lot in the second term. the public image hasn't caught up to that reality yet and it is also waning some and this particular episode didn't help. bush himself had to go out and publicly state that he thought the firings of the eight had not been handled well. he famously uttered the words mistakes were made. >> the next step that happened after that in the aftermath was there was somebody at the justice department who was interviewing new u.s. attorneys and saying how much do you love our president? please tell me. do you remember that, fephilip? >> i do not. there was sort of a loyalty question that hit the job interview and that hit "the washington post" and there were rogue line prosecutors who saw an opening because they felt that the justice department was on the rocks a little bit and they indicted senator ted stephens and they thought nobody at the justice department would stop the indictment of

steve: karl, let's start with you. hits and misses of last night?ll, but i really think that the hit, the poor pete buttigieg was just getting hammered, amy klobuchar went after him, he got sideswiped by sanders but warren went after him and what was interesting to me was not so much the attack, it was the answer, because when you have a question like that you want to come back strong and he's came back, i thought, started off pretty weak, and he ended with what could have been the strongest point. remember he starts by saying, you know, we got to talk to rich progressives, you're worth 100 times me if i took a contribution from you would i be corrupt but he ended with what should have been the strong point which is you ran for the senate and took money at fundraisers and he should have started with that and said wait a minute you took $10.4 million from your senate campaign that you raised at fancy fundraisers all across the country and money you got from corporate ceo's and wealthy people, looking for a loophole in the law and an in with you and y

welcome, karl rove. good to see you again. let's talk about the political impact of impeachment. of republicans seem to think that this is going to work better for them than for the democrats. what do you sunshine. >> i think it will. but not the way that we might think. i think both bases will be energized by impeachment. there's a slim chance that democrats will say you tried to do it but when the senate votes not to remove him, there might be a little bit of air out of the cushion but i think it's going to energize both bases. the key is what does it do to the independents, the small group of swing voters, moderates, independent, people up for grabs in the election, maybe eight, 10, 12% of the lek electorate. the polls indicated the longer the impeachment process has gone on, the less excited they are about it and the more they turn against impeachment. a senate trial i suspect will turn them more against it. at the end of the day, small plus for republicans, but not because what it does for republicans, because that's countered by what happens among democrats, it's what happe

capri, karl rove, is he right or wrong?> he is right in the sense that impeachment always has a negative effect on the soul of the country. i think that it will really be up to the american people how they feel about this and that will be seen at the ballot box. i would say the president trump and the white house has a way to two to go in this. because as people are aggravated about nancy pelosi holding onto the articles of impeachment, there is a feeling that if the call was so perfect as president trump claims, why not have all of the witnesses? why not release him from executive privilege? get out there, tell your story and defend yourself, because transparency if innocent, will really help. >> julie: i want to talk about that phone call, the president has called it perfect. we have seen a memo, it was not the transcript. the exact verbatim word for word, why is that? that would answer a lot of questions and perhaps have the president would call it perfect, it would shut the democrats up if you actually gave them a verba
